Born from a dual love for cooking and print production, this 60+ page hardbound cookbook was a passion project in technical layout and pre-press management. I authored every aspect of the project—from recipe development and photography to the final pre-flight check. The process required strict adherence to press specifications, including CMYK color profiling, high-DPI image optimization, and precise management of bleeds and safe zones. This project demonstrates my ability to manage large, image-heavy documents while ensuring a flawless transition from digital file to physical, hardbound product.
